Terminate the link by installing a 120 ohm, 1/4 watt
(minimum) terminator in the fixture’s Data Out
(female) cable connector in the last fixture on each
DMX link.
To construct a terminator:
1. Disassemble a male 3-pin or 5-pin XLR connector.
2. Solder a 120 ohm resistor, minimum of 1/4 watt, between Pin 2 and Pin 3.
3. Reassemble the XLR connector.
Configuring SolaWash 19 LED for DMX Control
Each SolaWash 19 LED fixture running standard protocol requires a block of 21 consecutive
channels on a standard DMX512 link. Up to 24 standard SolaWash 19 LED fixtures can be
assigned to a single link. For more information on Start Channels, see Determining DMX Start
Channel Assignment on page 23. Address your fixture by setting the first channel of the channel
range you want to assign this fixture on the link.
Note:
SolaWash 19 LED fixtures ship set in Standard User Mode. Other
protocol options are available and require a different number of
consecutive channels. The protocol selection is made in the Menu
System. For information on setting a fixture to a different protocol
option, see
User Mode Menu
on page 30.
Addressing is done for each unit using the fixture’s menu system. You can access the menu
system in battery mode to Address the fixture before you mount it or apply power.
